Good Morning all,
I recently had a Southwest guy in the jump who's a reserve puke like myself. I was surprised to learn that a SWA reserve pilot gets 15 days off per month! Good for you guys!
Here at Alaska, all reserve lines have 12 days off per month. No more, no less. A guy might be...
Ok - lets get this party started.
Bill is speaking tomorrow at an aviation conference. The rumors on the line have been pretty good as to what he will have to say. Actually, they have been some of the most creative rumors I have ever heard!
So, with less than 24 hours until we know the...
Good Morning Ladies and Gents,
I've got a question for the vast pool of knowledge on this board. Thumbing through a Trade a Plane last night, I came across five old DAL B737-200QC aircraft for sale.
I was not aware that DAL ever had QC's. Did they ever fly them in Combi or as freighters? Any...

I remember a post like this last year and it was fun to read, so I will will start it off this year.
My 2004 total was 568 hours. 8 months on the line, 4 months of laid back reserve. All of it in the Mudhen (ANC B737-200). High month was 74 hours, low month was 2 hours. 74 approaches with...
Got a question for any SWA drivers out there. I have heard that SWA keeps there 200's seperate from the rest of the fleet - in other words, all 200's are in one base and all 200 pilots only fly that airplane.
If this is true, where is that base? Does the airplane fly turns in Texas or is it...

Over 7,000 flights in about 11 years operating in and out of a 3,900 foot runway with an NDB approach.

At Alaska, our pairings are built with 35 minutes on the ground. I've heard that SWA is something like 20 minutes (I don't even want to get into the brake cooling chart on that one...)
So, the other night we got to the gate 15 minutes early on a turn. I set up for the next leg, did my walk...
